Is this game still being developed?

Post by Respublik »

So I known that this [https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49970] is a thing, as it was during just before the Asmodee acquisition, etc. but is there anyone attached still developing this game?

It seems that for the last 11 months or so nothing in the bugs forum has been looked into, including what seems to involve the Countdown timer mechanics that 100% everyone playing this ultimately faces.


P.S. If I should have posted this instead in the devs topics, please note that for me, I no longer rememer proper forums procedures etiquette after some absence from BGA.

This had been during Alpha or so, as forum might suggest.

Not really. This game returned to private Alpha due to this "uncommon legal issue".

But 1 year ago it came back:
"The game is now available again on the platform. Thanks for the publisher Alderac for this support.
Have fun and I hope you'll enjoy this game"

And nothing indicates the status has changed since then.

To answer the OP's question, the game has a listed developer, and the latest release is from last month.

The game was disabled a long time ago then enabled (else you wouldn't be able to this this bug!).
It has nothing to do with game maintainance.
The bug is now fixed.
